In a year of record-breaking voter registration Multnomah County has topped more than a half million registered voters. Each of these more than 500,000 eligible voters will receive a ballot. The U.S. Postal Service has begun mailing those ballots today, Wednesday, October 19, for the November 8 General Election. Multnomah County voters who do not receive a ballot by Thursday, October 27 should call the county elections office at 503-988-3720.

Voters can sign up to track their ballot. Text, email, or voice alerts tell voters when the County Elections office has mailed ballots.
